This makes the image brighter to prevent darkening of a
backlit subject.
This brightens parts that are in shadow and difficult to see
and suppresses white saturation in bright parts at the same
time. Both bright and dark parts can be recorded clearly.
When you start recording, the image/audio gradually
appears. (Fade in)
When you pause recording, the image/audio gradually
disappears. (Fade out)
≥ The fade setting is cancelled when the recording stops.

This makes skin colours appear softer for a more attractive
appearance.
This is more effective if you record a person closely from the
torso up.
More impressive image can be obtained by focusing on the
object only in closeup and shading off the background.
≥ The unit can focus on the subject at a distance of approx.
50 cm.
≥ If the magnification is 16k or less, then it is automatically set to
16k.
This function allows you to record colour images in very low
light situations. (Minimum required illumination: approx.
